Oingo Boingo - Helpless Lyrics
Countless long nightsWhile I stare at the wallI ask myself over again...How did I end upIn this little hell?How - did it ever begin?Oh, oh, oh oh oh helpessHelpless to turn back the clockThat ticks onWith its cruel shiny faceIt laughs while it watchesMy every disgrace - I wasBorn a sap - all theNurses laughed when theySaw me the first timeThey giggled and they saidThis poor little monsterd beBetter off dead.Oh, oh, oh oh oh helpessHelplessly trapped in a bodyIm sure -Should have never been mine.I bet that my real onesDoing just fine - and iDont belong here, iDont belong here - iShould be quite richWith a big shiny carA house with twelve roomsI deserve to go far.Oh, oh, oh oh oh helpessHelplessly falling in loveBut does loveReally last through the night?To love - to honor -To kick and to bite! and iDont belong here, iDont belong hereIts all a mistakeI was destined for greatnessA leader, a prophet -Theyre just too blind to notice.Where did this whole silly story begin?It seems that my mind has gone -Blank.I think that Ive messed up a chapter or two.Perhaps it is best if Im frank!Oh, oh, oh oh oh helpess -Helplessly lost like thatPoor chap who cameFor an innocent dance.He left with his brain smearedAll over his pants! cause heDidnt belong here, heDidnt belong hereHe never shouldve leftThat warm cage in a zoo!His face was so uglyWhat else could I do?Can you - really blame me, iHad to smash it.He left me no choice,He was just like the others.I just had to kill him.With my poor, dear, oldMother.Oh, oh, oh oh oh helpessHelplessly *****ed in the assBy a legion of forty ex-consThats what it feels likeWhen you walk all over me.Dont belong here, iDont belong hereYour eyes burn right through me.They fill me with fear.I couldve been at homeWatching football, and drinking beer.Oh, oh, oh oh oh helpess, so helpless.
